The Leadership Academy was spearheaded by President Salahshor for the purpose of building future FAPA leaders.The Leadership Academy education covers essential topics from understanding the history and beginnings of FAPA, to managing resources, to effective development and public relations, and helping to cultivate a supportive network of peers. Graduates of the program are prepared for, and assigned specific volunteer tasks within our organization. Webinars are held twice a month, culminating at the Leadership Conference in June, with a tour of the state capitol and explanation of the legislative process.
